  1. For sale is my Cheap and chearful 1994 Vauxhall Astra 1.4. Its an LS model which means it has CL, ABS, PAS and EW. It's a five door with 115K on the clock which is quite low for this age of vehicle. Its has some rust on the rear arches but it wasn't even an advisory on the MOT and hasn't got any worse, some kind soul ripped off the rear wiper but this would be a cheap fix from a scarpyard. It has 4 months left on the MOT and 9 months tax on it. Looking for 300 without the tax or 400 with tax. http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/264914_10150303964912658_5579690_n.jpg http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/263452_10150303964682658_514137657_9147284_2770468_n.jpg http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/269121_10150303963812658_514137657_9147272_3747708_n.jpg Feel free to ask me questions about the car.
  2. I now own 3 cars need to get rid of the Astra now
  3. Update on this, after looking for ages I finally got myself a Suzuki Swift. Its a 52 plate with FSSH up to 40K, loads of receipts and has done a total of less than 55K miles. Its a 1.0 GLS model but it is apparently a Special Edition model as it comes with CL, ABS, PAS, EW, EM, spoiler and Bucket Seats which are actually really comfy plus they are very body hugging too. Its got two speakers mounted on the parcel shelf and aftermarket ones in the front which are quite good clarity. It had some work done to it last year inlcuding brand new front suspension replaced by Suzuki because of a recall, new clutch, new engine mounts, new battery and has 5 good tyres. I got it with 10 months tax and the only downside is MOT runs out this month but there were no advisories on the last MOT so hopefully should be ok. There are a few scuffs on the paintwork but nothing major and its just had a full service. How much did you pay for this I hear you ask ? A monstrous 380 quid
  4. Nice car but you should sort the price out mate !! Its way too cheap for such an amazing car
  5. Becareful tomorrow though as there will be loads of black ice.
  6. The car is parked over the trap door to the dungeon.
  7. Possibly but they should have used the correct channels like everyone else rather than resulting to childish actions.
  8. Not really if it had damaged the paint I would have claimed for a full respray. Why should you be left worse off becuase of someone elses spiteful actions?
  9. At uni I looked at swarm technology and it really is quite amazing the things you can get them to do. Impressive stuff.
  10. Bang out of order really, it would have been funny if they had built a wall around it but putting on top with pebbles and grit that could damage the paintwork is stupid. If it were me I would have just bought a pack of chewing gum like H said but if I came back to that I would be going ape and rip the manager a new one !!
  11. I don't have a torque wrench otherwise I would do it myself Dunk.

    Gearbox Failure

    That the spirit !!
  13. How much am I looking at to get my nuts tighten ? (Oh eeerr)
  14. I don't have any problems going forward but when I reverse it clonks like you said is this my sub frame bolts as it annoys the hell out of me.
  15. how much is the ram cooler ? Could be interested in this, how many hard drives do you run with at the moment?
  16. You are not supposed to put it on when its wet so I would just leave it TBH. It's not the end of the world if it gets a bit of snow on it, its the salt that will kill it so don't drive it

    Signature material right there This isn't going to rule out of Dragonball is it?
  18. I work nights and only got up a short while ago !! It's quite deep here in Chesterfield, great the first day of my week off in which I intended to detail the Supra and service the Astra Looks like an unproductive week off, I wish I had a garage will someone build me one for a bag of Haribo ?

    I can't remember the thread but it was said that it is cheaper to replace rather than repair the box. Unless its fifth gear as this is the easiest to get to.
  20. Will do plus its an 02 plate so tax is 95 a year
  21. Will be watching the thread !! Always loved the MR2 but I might get told off for the thread diversion so back on topic when am I getting my hoody
